Favorite non-board distraction

[LilLemur416]

What is your favorite non-board distraction both at work/school & at home...?

I spend a lot of time at Yahoo Games when stuck at work & am starting to get sick of playing the same thing over and over again. So what do you do when you're stuck trying to look productive on a computer and there's not much happening on the board or it's down?

[shade]

there are other message boards in the sea.

[maynard]

i'm not on any other messageboards...well, none that I've posted on in like a year and a half, anyways.

i update/obsess over my fantasy sports teams often. other than that, it's either the buzzboard or check my e-mail, or actually do work.

[Pseudo Society]

When I'm at work I pick the brain of the bible beating know all civilian that works for me. I heart proving people wrong.

Other than that...at work it's mypsace and MSN games.

At home...Final Fantasy XI and recently my roomate got discs 1-7 of The O.C. I feel like such a :tool:

work - the ladies


ahhh...yes. yes indeed.

[evey]

I do work :shrug:

Yeah, today is paperwork day. In fact, I should be doing that right now.

At my old job I used to play runescape a lot. www.runescape.com or go to www.miniclip.com I ended up getting the network administrator obsessed with that game. He now plays it all the time at work and at home.

I also search ebay a lot for tons of different things.

I'm "not allowed to leave my work area for more than 5 minutes without a break"

[LilLemur416]

I do work :shrug:

Yeah - I realized I probably should have specified when there's a lot of down time... My work tends to be fairly sporadic... When it rains it pours kind of a thing.

[Fetterbug]

I stalk Christina Aguilera.


Or read books. One or the other.

[Taishou]

surf the board... do work... surf the board... do work...

I find masturbation to be an effective time-killer.

[MURAMASA]

I think. For real, I probably spend more time in a day thinking about the most random things (my existence, social customs, graphic stuff, romance, what I need to get at the grocery store, my family & friends, local events, new drum and bass releases, outer space, morality, or sometimes just meditating on nothing) than I do on any other activity. Sometimes I'll be sitting here looking at the screen, but I'll be zoned out for half an hour on something as simple as color combinations or concepts on object permanence in infants.

Meh.

[djnumb]

Well I'm always on ESPN.com & BaltimoreSun.com checking for Ravens and NFL news.
Also, I have been doing tons of research for this year's WMC. Getting my party schedule straight. Any Buzzboarders going to Miami, looking to meetup @ some parties or bars, PM me.

[ravetildawn]

i tend to be distracted by most anything - especially shiny objects.
i think i get more use out of my cats toys than they do.

[Tigger]

I like to read, everything from product labels to books, magazines and newpapers...

[chickpea]

I constantly check for mistakes on listings that need to go in Homes and Land and Homebuyers Journal.

Other than that I do homework or harass people on myspace.

[madeofwires]

at work- read other boards, do work, check email, go outside and smoke cigarettes
at home- read, watch tv, sleep, go out

[DeAtHmOnGeR bEaR]

I read a lot while at work.

At home I'm either watching tv, on MySpace, playing with records, reading, or asleep. Yay!

[FutonBunny]

myspace eats my soul sometimes.

[Mandaba]

foodnetwork and hgtv. also literati on yahoo games with mah fren addy.

[decoy]

I post some on DOA, but mostly against anit-america rants as they are prone to get.

also, I read some stuff on DTMpower.net, but not often.

I talk on AIM incessantly. In fact, half the time I'm browsing the board it's to cover downtime in AIM convos.

Hehe, fogot that on my post. I use soulseek all the time. I think I'm addicted to new live sets. But I only run SS @ home, not here in the office.
